    Exclamation Improved Critical Bug?

    Has anyone with the Improved Crit feat noticed if their weapons are showing the correct crit range on the UI when they examine their weapons? And if it's not showing correctly, if someone has checked the crit calculations to make sure the range is actually applying in game.

    I'm wondering if this is a UI bug, or an all out game bug. Also wondering if this is isolated to me, or if anyone else has experienced or noticed this.

    I haven't checked lately, but about a month ago it was working properly.

    Indeed, improved critical will not show up when you examine your weapon. However, you can see your correct critical range by opening your inventory and expanding it to show your equipped weapons and your AC/DR. (there's a button bottom right of your inventory)

    Now I will admit that I've been out of the game a while, but I do remember when I could hover over my weapon and it show the appropriate Crit range based on enhancements and feats. Now the Swashbuckler enhancements show correctly in the UI, but when I hover over my ESoS while having Improved Critical: Slash on my character, it only shows a 15% crit range when it should be 30% with the feat. It does that for all my slashing weapons on that particular toon, and does the same thing on my Bard with his piercing weapons even though I have Improved Critical: Piercing.

    In the time it took to write this thread, you could of checked yourself.

    IC: Slashing is working perfectly fine with my Khopeshes.

    Swashbuckling crit modifiers show when you examine weapons.
    Holy Sword crit modifiers show when you examine weapons.
    Keen crit modifiers show when you examine weapons.
    Celestial Champion crit modifiers show when you examine weapons.
    Improved Critical Feat does not show when you examine weapons and I don't remember if it ever did.

    However, as I told you, you can see its effects from your inventory (and from testing of course, pretty easy to see)

    At the time of writing this thread, I am at work and unable to access the game. I was noticing it last night before logging off. I wasn't thinking last night to check my rolls to see if they were attempting to confirm criticals in the proper range. I happened to be thinking about it this morning and just wanted to see if I was crazy, or if the UI had changed the last time I played.

    I do appreciate you confirming that though, Impaqt.

    Ok...heck...maybe I'm crazy then. LOL

    I could have sworn I remember at one point being able to examine my weapon with IC: Slashing and seeing my ESos with a 30% crit range and not just "knowing" it did.

    On the last point, I was tired and didn't think to check that. You're probably right if i examine my equipped weapon on my inventory. Maybe I am crazy. I just wanted to post here to see if what I saw was correct or not. I appreciate the responses. I'll double check this when I get back in game this afternoon.
